(while t..) spin is a common way to wait for async conditions
Why not check the condition directly, i.e., s/t/CONDITION/ like:
(while CONDITION
(accept-process-output ...))
That is more precise, no? Another idea, if there is some
expected traffic, is to use ‘(accept-process-output ...)’
directly as (or as part of) CONDITION, using its return value.
